$CVS Technical Briefing
See the CVS stock chart above for reference. The weekly cycle analysis suggests that CVS formed an important cyclical base and is in a very positive intermediate-term pattern. Weekly momentum is negative.
On the upside, there is an intermediate-term Fibonacci confluence zone from 79.19 – 82.71. On the downside, there is an intermediate-term support zone from 70.58 – 68.58. For the bears to regain control of the intermediate-term, we would likely need to see a weekly close below cycle low support at 66.79.
$CVS Sum of the Evidence
CVS is in a very bullish intermediate-term cycle pattern with negative momentum. Given these conditions, we would expect short-term sell-offs to be limited to the intermediate Fibonacci support zone beginning at 70.58. There is a likelihood the stock tests 79 by May.
